slip or fall off the Equipment and be injured or killed. Children can cause the

operator on prescription or over-the-counter medication must consult a
medical professional regarding any side effects of the medication that
would hinder their ability to operate the Equipment safely. NEVER
knowingly allow anyone to operate this equipment when their alertness or
coordination is impaired.
Serious injury or death to the operator or others
could result if the operator is under the influnce of drugs or alcohol.

In addition to the design and configuration of this Implement, including Safety Signs and Safety Equipment, hazard
control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of the machine. Refer also to Safety
Messages and operation instruction in each of the appropriate sections of the Tractor and Equipment Manuals.
Pay close attention to the Safety Signs affixed to the Tractor and Equipment.
(SG-18)

adequate artificial lighting. Never mow in darkness or foggy conditions where
you cannot clearly see at least 100 yards in front and to the sides of the tractor
and mower. Make sure that you can clearly see and identify passersby, steep
slopes, ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, debris and
foreign objects. If you are unable to clearly see this type of items discontinue
mowing.

DANGER! There are obvious and hidden potential hazards in the operation of this

not properly installed and maintained. Serious injury or even death may
occur unless care is taken to insure the safety of the operator, bystanders,
or passersby in the area. Do not operate this machine with anyone in the
immediate area. Stop mowing if anyone is within 100 yards of mower.
